Care Philosophy

My clinical interests include the diagnosis and management of Interstitial Lung Diseases, as well as care of critically ill patients in the Medical Intensive Care Unit. Interstitial lung diseases are complex group of over 100 rare disorders, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, autoimmune or connective tissue disease-related interstitial lung disease and hypersensitivity pneumonitis being the most common. ILDs are often associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Our group strives to provide comprehensive care for patients with ILD using a multi-disciplinary and multi-dimensional approach to care and research. In the Intensive Care Unit, I diagnose and treat complex critically ill of patients with a wide variety of complex medical conditions, ranging from respiratory failure to septic shock to gastrointestinal bleeding to severe electrolyte and metabolic derangements. In all of my practice settings, I value the opportunity to work with patients and their families. I endeavor to apply rigorous attention to detail, a focus on evidence-based medicine, and a collaborative focus on treatments and interventions.
